Help Oliver See Again: Support His Eye Surgery

Donation protected

[FIRST UPDATE SHOWS ALL EXPENSES/BILLS]

Today, I am reaching out on behalf of my beloved dog, my emotional support animal, who is facing a challenging and difficult situation that I struggle even now to ask help with.

My dog, who is not just a pet but a beloved family member and friend to me, has been struggling with vision loss ever since he was diagnosed with diabetes.

His vision has been slowly deteriorating to the point he can barely see shadows now. Every day is a struggle and I can see he's in pain, even if it's not physical.

Oliver bumps into things constantly, he nearly falls down the stairs, in which I pick him up and carry him down them so he can go use the restroom.

He wants to be his usual fun-loving, energetic self and play, but realizing he can't see makes him sad it seems, to the point he just sleeps all day, lays around all day.

He's lost that spark in him because he is no longer able to see what's in front of him for him to enjoy playtime, the day like he used to.

Together we can ensure my ESA receives the care he deserves to make his remaining years comfortable.

I always put my dog before my own needs, and even now I am wanting to give him the world to make sure he's happy and safe.

Contribution can be through financial support or simply sharing the campaign in your network.

Every bit helps, no matter how small.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for any kindness, generosity, and for being part of my journey in helping my dog regain the vision he has lost.
